March 7 2009 Large & Lovely Newsletter

Hello Large and Lovelies,

It was an incredibly beautiful day today. DH and I ended up going for a 90 minute walk with the dog. Dog was super muddy but we didn't care. I haven't looked yet but I'm sure something is probably peeking out of the ground from today's warmth. It's the middle of the night as I write this and it's still above freezing. Ok, I'll stop gloating about my weather.

If you haven't had the chance yet, the Lane Bryant $50 gift card blog giveaway is still on at my shopping blog. It's easy peasy to enter and while the card is given in promotion of LB's new Pushup Demi Bra you can use the card for whatever you want.

I hope you enjoy this week's newsletter. If you have the time stop by the Large and Lovely forum and say "hey!"

Have a great weekend!
Moe

"To all the mythical mothers who are unwilling to upbraid their fat kids in the grocery store about how they Shouldn’t Be Eating That: good for you, wherever you are. Your kids need a gentle hand guiding them away from the manic acquisitiveness that marketers try to instill and exploit — but they also need to be guided away from the opposite gulf, the abyss of self-hatred and self-doubt that’s equally alluring to kids of a certain age."
